Emergency Tensioning Device (ETD),
seat belt force limiter
The seat belts for the front and rear out-
er seats are equipped with emergency
tensioning devices and seat belt force
limiters.
The ETD is designed to activate in the fol-
lowing cases:
앫 in frontal or rear-end impacts exceed-
ing the system deployment threshold
앫 in certain vehicle rollovers
앫 if the restraint systems are operation-
al and functioning correctly, see
1 indicator lamp (
컄 page 82).
In an impact, emergency tensioning de-
vices remove slack from the seat belts in
such a way that the seat belts fit more
snugly against the body. Seat belt force
limiters reduce the force exerted by the
seat belts on occupants during a crash.
i The ETDs for the front seats will only acti-
vate if the respective front seat belt is fas-
tened (latch plate properly inserted into
buckle).
The ETDs for the rear outer seats will activate
with or without the respective seat belt fas-
tened.
When activated, emergency tensioning
devices remove slack from the seat belts.
Seat belt force limiters reduce the force
exerted by the seat belts on occupants
during a crash.
Automatic comfort-fit feature seat belt
An automatic comfort-fit feature for
front seats reduces the retracting force
of the seat belts when they are in normal
use.
If an infant or child is traveling with you
in the vehicle:
왘 Secure the child using an infant or
child restraint appropriate to the age
and size of the child.
왘 Make sure the infant or child is prop-
erly secured at all times while the ve-
hicle is in motion.
Warning! G
An emergency tensioning device (ETD)
that was activated must be replaced.
When disposing of the emergency tension-
ing device, our safety instructions must be
followed. These are available at your au-
thorized Maybach Studio.
Children in the vehicle

vehicle, even if they are secured in a child
restraint system. The children could

cle

very hot, and the child could be burned on
these parts.
